AHRC SGSAH PhD Studentship – Pasts, Presents and Futures of Digitally-Mediated Theatre

BackgroundIn recent years, theatre-makers have experimented widely with how to record and distribute live performance through digital media and platforms. Since the return of live, staged performances, profound questions remain about the role, opportunities, business models and implications of digitally-mediated theatre, and the ways in which theatres do –...

The advent of Industry 4.0 has ushered in a new era of manufacturing, marked by the integration of advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and digital twins. This research project will investigate the methodologies and technologies necessary to create an accurate and dynamic digital twin that reflects the...

We’re a Theatre Without Walls, have imagination without limits and exist to make extraordinary, relevant theatre by, with and for contemporary Scotland. As we continue our journey, we are seeking to recruit two Non-Executive Directors from the business world, third sector, cultural sector and beyond who share our passion for theatre and the arts to...

A major challenge for defence & security laser systems is managing the heat generated and differential thermal expansion of the different components in the system. A compounding challenge is the vast range of ambient temperatures in which these systems need to operate without thermal distortion. However, additive manufacturing gives the unique opportunity to...

Sensor networks, sensor fusion and management techniques address key challenges in intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance (ISTAR). Opportunities in adaptive data-driven sensor tasking and resource management include adaptive sensor placement, adaptive waveform design to reflect the target reflection characteristics and channel...

A wide spectrum of target thermoplastic materials can be manufactured by tailoring polymer blends to achieve particular combinations of end-user performance (e.g. mechanical, electrical, structural support) properties, important in various industrial sectors, especially in extreme-condition environments. These polymeric material classes include the widely...

Summary: This research proposal addresses challenges in the UK's construction industry, focusing on sustainability & safety. It aims to develop machine learning models that combine data from similar infrastructure and integrate information from previous inspections to predict potential problems. The models will also account for the impact of changing climate...

Continuum mechanics approaches have been used to model the mechanical behaviour of biological (and active) systems at length scales that are large enough. For example, when analysed at the micron-scale, biological membranes can be treated as continuum objects that deform regulated by effective properties such as curvature mismatch or active forces. Those...

The projections of sea level rise show that UK sea level will continue to rise well beyond 2100, even under scenarios where future temperature rise is stopped. Extreme sea level events are also expected to become more frequent in the future and occurring about 20 to 30 times more frequently by the year 2050, according to Intergovernmental Panel on Climate...
